Nutritional Choice of the Month - December 2010:
Organic Bistro Whole Life Meals

We’re all busy various commitments and sometimes we rely on quick meals like frozen dinners.  I remember growing up some of the horrible TV dinners I ingested with God knows what chemicals/artificial additives.  To this day, many of the frozen dinners in grocery stores are littered with excessive amounts of sodium and saturated fat.  Personally, I had been relying on Kashi products, but I’m happy to report I have found what I deem the healthiest frozen meal money can buy.

Organic Bistro Whole Life Meals is a new product available at your local Whole Foods market.  They carry a line of 8 dinners that contain low levels of sodium and natural ingredients that you can actually pronounce!  My favorite so far is the Wild Salmon that is served in a rosemary orange glaze with cranberry pilaf and broccoli.  The standout statistic from this selection is the ridiculously low sodium content- 65 milligrams! Try scoring a number that low in your Hungry Man Fried Chicken dinner!

One caveat is that the price can run high ($6.49 is what I pay), but I’d rather pay a couple bucks more for organic veggies, whole grains, less salt, and real food packaged in recycled cardboard.  Give this new line of healthy frozen meals a try and let me know what you think.
